Worth knowing before you choose

DeepL - worth knowing

30-day free trial is separate from the free version.
API plans (Developer free 1M-char one-time credit; Growth $32.50/mo + usage) are not the consumer entry.
Team and Business are explicitly per-user priced; Individual is not.
Android, iOS, Mac, Windows and browser extensions are listed. Free web translation can be used without an account; Pro and API need an account or purchase.
"Text translation - Characters (per user/month): Free version 50,000.
Individual 300,000.
Team 1,000,000.
File translations (per user/month): Free version 1.
Individual 3.
Team 20 ..." Free-version quotas are per user/month, so renewable monthly: 50,000 text characters and 1 file translation per month, plus 1 glossary (5 entries/language pair) and 1 saved translation as standing caps.
Separate free tri.

Immersive Translate - worth knowing

Free general models with a daily fair-use cap (amount not listed on the pages we checked; higher after registration).
Membership (paid) terms restrict use to personal, non-commercial purposes; whether that restriction binds free use is not established - not a business localization fit without clarification.
